ABSTRACT
Each of the five handbooks contains approximately 40
pages of tabular material derived from results of a mail survey of
all dental hygienists licensed to practice in each of the states. The
statistical tables are concerned with personal characteristics,
education and training, professional history, current professional
activity, professional activity during the last 12 months, continuing
education, and status of currently inactive hygienists in each state*
Other state surveys in this nationwide study have already been
conducted, and others will be completed in the near future.

INTRODUCTION
In December 1966, the Nevada State Board of Dental Examiners con-
ducted a mail survey of all dental hygienists licensed to practice
in the State. This survey was conducted concurrently with the
hygienists’ annual reregistration with the Board.
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the
information furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and
returned their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent
was obtained from the Board records .
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most of
the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent
cross-tabulations of data have been presented when the number of
hygienists in the specific population group was large enough to
provide meaningful data.
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in Nevada, the data
exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside in the
State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded may
be a few nonlicensed hygienists who are working in the State either
for the Federal Government or for some employer in an administra-
tive or other nonclinical position in which licensure is not a
prerequisite for employment.
The Nevada survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental examin-
ing boards in virtually all of the States are utilizing the same
questionnaire printed under their own letterheads, to survey
dental hygienists licensed in their respective States. The American
Association of Dental Examiners, under a contract with the Division
of Dental Health of the National Institutes of Health, USPHS, is
coordinating this national survey program to assist States in devel-
oping comparable information about their dental manpower resources.
The preparation of this Handbook has been made possible through the
cooperation of the American Association of Dental Examiners and the
Division of Dental Health, Resource Analysis Branch.

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according
to their location at the time of the survey:
1. Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey State, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey State. (Excludes
survey State residents who were active in another State) .
2. Out-of-State hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 States or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents
who resided in another State.
3. Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists
surveyed.
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their
questionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status. Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined accord-
ing to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the
survey:
1. Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist.
2. ; Inactive hygienists include those who were not professionally
active. (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene) .
In the presentation of current employment statistics the term practicing
hygienists relates specifically to those who were working in a private
dental office. However, in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice" are used in a broader connotation referring
to all professionally active hygienists.

DENTAL HYGIENISTS
LICENSED IN
UTAH
1966
A
Cooperative Project of the
State of Utah, Department of Registration
and the American Association of Dental Examiners
This project
was supported under contract
with
U. S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND WELFARE
Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health
Division of Dental Health
Manpower Studies Branch
June. 1971
INTRODUCTION
In October 1966, the State of Utah, Department of Registration
conducted a mail survey of all dental hygienists licensed to
practice in the State. This survey was conducted concurrently
with the hygienists' annual reregistration with the Board
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the
information furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and
returned their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent
was obtained from the Board records.
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most
of the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent
cross-tabulations of data have been presented when the number of
hygienists in the specific population group was large enough to
provide meaningful data.
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in Utah, the data
exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside in the
State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded may be
a few non-licensed hygienists who are working in the State either
for the Federal Government or for some employer in an administrative
or other nonclinical position in which licensure is not a prerequisite
for employment.
The Utah survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental examining
boards in vitually all of the States are utilizing the same question-
naire printed under their own letterheads, to survey dental hygienists
licensed in their respective States. The American Association of
Dental Examiners, under a contract with the Division of Dental Health
of the National Institutes of Health, USPHS, is coordinating this
national survey program to assist States in developing comparable
information about their dental manpower resources. The preparation
of this Handbook has been made possible through the cooperation of
the American Association of Dental Examiners and the Division of
Dental Health, Manpower Studies Branch.

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according to
their location at the time of the survey:
1 Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey state, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey state, (Excludes
survey state residents who were active in another state) ..
2, Out' of -state hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 states or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents
who resided in another state.
3. Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists sur-
veyed
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their ques-
tionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status. Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined according
to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the survey:
1. Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist
2, Inactive hygienists include those who were not professionally
active. (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene) :
In the presentation of current employment statistics the term practic ing
hygienists relates specifically to those who were working in a private
dental office. However, in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice" are. used in a broader connotation
referring to all professionally active hygienists.

HANDBOOK OF STATISTICS
DENTAL HYGIENISTS
LICENSED IN
SOUTH CAROLINA
1967
A
Cooperative Project of the
South Carolina State Board of Dentistry
and the American Association of Dental Examiners
This project
was supported under contract
with
U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND WELFARE
Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health
Division of Dental Health
Manpower Studies Branch
INTRODUCTION
In January 1967, the South Carolina State Board of Dentistry con-
ducted a mail survey of all dental hygienists licensed to practice
in the State. This survey was conducted concurrently with the
hygienists* annual reregistration with the Board.
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the in-
formation furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and
returned their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent
was obtained from the Board records.
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most of
the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent
cross- tabulations of data have been presented when the number of
hygienists in the specific population group was large enough to
provide meaningful data.
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in South Carolina,
the data exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside
in the State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded
may be a few nonlicensea hygienists who are working in the State
either for the Federal Government or for some employer in an adminis-
trative or other nonclinical position in which licensure is not a
prerequisite for employment.
The South Carolina survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental
examining boards in virtually all of the States are utilizing the
same questionnaire printed under their own letterheads, to survey
dental hygienists licensed in their respective States. The American
Association of Dental Examiners, under a contract with the Division
of Dental Health of the National Institutes of Health, USPHS, is
coordinating this national survey program to assist States in develop-
ing comparable information about their dental manpower resources.
The preparation of this Handbook has been made possible through the
cooperation of the American Association of Dental Examiners and the
Division of Dental Health, Manpower Studies Branch.
FROM SURVEY QUESTIONNAIRE TO STATISTICAL TABLES
Information gathered by survey questionnaires is compiled into statistical tables which present a profile of
the professional activities of dental hygienists licensed in this State. To see the uses made of data gathered

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according to
their location at the time of the survey?
1. Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey state, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey state, (Excludes
survey state residents who were active in another state) ,
2 Out' of - state hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 states or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents
who resided in another state.
3 Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists sur-
veyed
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their ques-
tionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status- Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined according
to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the survey:
1 . Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist
2 , Inactive hygienists include those who were not professionally
active. (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene)
In the presentation of current employment statistics the term practic ing
hygienists relates specifically to those who were working in a private
dental off ice . However , in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice", are used in a broader connotation
referring to al.1. professionally active hygienists.

INTRODUCTION
In early 1966, the New York State Board of Dental Examiners
conducted a mail survey of all dental hygienists licensed to
practice in the State, This survey was conducted concurrently
with the hygienists 1 annual reregistration with the Board.
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the
information furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and
returned their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent
was obtained from the Board records.
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most
of the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent
cross-tabulations of data have been presented when the number of
hygienists in the specific population group was large enough to
provide meaningful data.
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in New York, the
data exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside
in the State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded
may be a few nonlicensed hygienists who are working in the State
either for the Federal Government or for some employer in an
administrative or other nonclinical position in which licensure
is not a prerequisite for employment,,
The New York survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental
examining boards in virtually all of the States are utilizing the
same questionnaire printed under their own letterheads, to survey
dental hygienists licensed in their respective States. The
American Association of Dental Examiners, under a contract with the
Division of Dental Health of the National Institutes of Health,
USPHS, is coordinating this national survey program to assist States
in developing comparable information about their dental manpower
resources. The preparation of this Handbook has been made possible
through the cooperation of the American Association of Dental
Examiners and the Division of Dental Health, Resource Analysis Branch

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according to
their location at the time, of the survey:
1 Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey state, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey state, (Excludes
survey state residents who were active in another state) .
2 Out of -state hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 states or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents
who resided in another state.
3 Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists sur-
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their ques-
tionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status. Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined according
to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the survey:
1. Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist
2 - Inactive hygienists include those who were not professionally
active, (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene) r
In the presentation of current employment statistics the term practicing
hygienists relates specifically to those who were working in a private
dental office. However, in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice' are used in a broader connotation
referring to all professionally active hygienists.

INTRODUCTION
In December 1966, the Montana State Board of Dental Examiners con-
ducted a mail survey of all dental hygienists licensed to practice
-u in the State. This survey was conducted concurrently with the hy-
gienists' annual reregistration with the Board.
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the infor-
mation furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and returned
their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent was obtained
from the Board records.
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most of
the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent cross-
tabulations of data have been presented when the number of hygienists
in the specific population group was large enough to provide meaning-
ful data .
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in Montana, the data
exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside in the
State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded may be
a few nonlicensed hygienists who are working in the State either for
the Federal Government or for some employer in an administrative or
other uonclinical position in which licensure is not a prerequisite
for employment .
The Montana survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental examining
boards in virtually all of the States are utilizing the same question-
t naire printed under their own letterheads, to survey dental hygienists
licensed in their respective States. The American Association of Dental
Examiners, under a contract with the Division of Dental Health of the
National Institutes of Health, USPHS, is coordinating this national
survey program to assist States in developing comparable information
about their dental manpower resources. The preparation of this Hand-
book has been made possible through the cooperation of the American
Association of Dental Examiners and the Division of Dental Health,
Resource Analysis Branch.

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according to
their location at the time of the survey:
1 . Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey state, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey state, (Excludes
survey state residents who were active in another state) ,
2. Out* of -state hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 states or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents
who resided in another state.
3. Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists sur<
veyed
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their ques-
tionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status. Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined according
to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the survey:
1. Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist.
2, Inac tive hygienists include those who were not professionally .
active. (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene) .
In the presentation of. current employment statistics the term practicing
hygienists relates, specifically to these who were working in a private
dental office, However, in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice" are used ir: a broader connotation
referring to all professionally active hygienists.

INTRODUCTION
In December 1966,, the Board of Dental Examiner s-State of Hawaii
conducted a mail survey of all. dental hygienists licensed to practice
in the State. This survey was conducted concurrently with the
hygienists' annual reregistration with the Board.
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the
information furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and
returned their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent
was obtained from the Board records.
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most of
the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent cross-
tabulations of data have been presented when the number of hygienists
in the specific population group was large enough to provide
meaningful data.
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in Hawaii, the data
exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside in the
State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded may be
a few nonlicensed hygienists who are working in the State either for
the Federal Government or for some employer in an administrative or
other nonclinical. position in which licensure is not a prerequisite
for employment.
The Hawaii survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental examining
boards in virtually all of the States are utilizing the same question-
naire printed under their own letterheads, to survey dental hygienists
licensed in their respective States. The American Association of
Dental Examiners, under a contract with the Division of Dental Health
of the National Institutes of Health, USPHS, is coordinating this
national survey program to assist States in developing comparable
information about their dental manpower resources. The preparation
of this Handbook has been made possible through the cooperation of
the American Association of Dental Examiners and the Division of
Dental Health, Resource Analysis Branch.
FROM SURVEY QUESTIONNAIRE TO STATISTICAL TABLES
Information gathered by survey questionnaires is compiled into statistical tables which present a profile of
the professional activities of dental hygienists licensed in this State: To see the uses made of data gathered

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according to
their location at the time of the survey:
1 . Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey state, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey state. (Excludes
survey state residents who were active in another state)..
2. Out-of-state hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 states or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents,
who resided in another state.
3.. Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists sur-
veyed .
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their ques-
tionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status. Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined according
to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the survey:
1, Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist,
2„ Inactive hygienists include those who were not professionally
active, (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene):
In the presentation of current employment statistics the term practicing
hygienists relates specifically to those who were working in a private
dental office. However, in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice" are used in a broader connotation
referring to all professionally active hygienists.

INTRODUCTION
In January 1967, the Connecticut Dental Commission conducted a mail
survey of all dental hygienists licensed to practice in the State.
This survey was conducted concurrently with the hygienists' annual
reregistration with the Board.
Statistics presented in this Handbook were tabulated from the infor-
mation furnished by the dental hygienists who completed and returned
their questionnaires. The location of each nonrespondent was obtained
from the Board records.
This statistical presentation has been designed to provide most of
the basic facts which were collected in the survey. Pertinent cross-
tabulations of data have been presented when the number of hygienists
in the specific population group was large enough to provide meaningful
data.
Since this was a survey of hygienists licensed in Connecticut, the
data exclude an unknown number of inactive hygienists who reside in
the State but are not licensed to practice there. Also excluded may
be a few nonlicensed hygienists who are working in the State either
for the Federal Government or for some employer in an administrative
or other nonclinical position in which licensure is not a prerequisite
for employment.
The Connecticut survey is part of a national endeavor: Dental examin-
ing boards in virtually all of the States are utilizing the same question-
naire printed under their own letterheads » to survey dental hygienists
licensed in their respective States. The American Association of Dental
Examiners, under a contract with the Division of Dental Health of the
National Institutes of Health, USPHS, is coordinating this national
survey program to assist States in developing comparable information
about their dental manpower resources. The preparation of this Hand-
book has been made possible through the cooperation of the American
Association of Dental Examiners and the Division of Dental Health,
Resource Analysis Branch.

EXPLANATION OF SELECTED TERMS USED IN STATISTICAL TABLES
Licensed dental hygienists are divided into three groups according to
their location at the time of the survey:
1 Instate hygienists include respondents who were professionally
active in the survey state, as well as inactive respondents and
all nonrespondents who resided in the survey state. (Excludes
survey state residents who were active in another state) ,
2u Out-of-state hygienists include respondents who were profession-
ally active in one of the other 49 states or the District of
Columbia, as well as inactive respondents and all nonrespondents
who resided in another state.
3. Hygienists in foreign countries include all other hygienists sur-
veyed
Respondents include hygienists who completed and returned their ques-
tionnaire and provided sufficient information to determine their
current professional status. Nonrespondents include all other
hygienists surveyed.
The current professional status of hygienists was determined according
to their reported activity in dental hygiene at the time of the survey:
1. Active hygienists include those who were employed as a dental
hygienist in any position which required the special training
of a dental hygienist, as well as unemployed hygienists who
reported they were seeking employment as a dental hygienist.
2. Inactive hygienists include those who were not professionally
active. (Includes hygienists who were employed in any occupation
other than dental hygiene) ,
In the presentation of current employment statistics the term practicing
hygienists relates specifically to those who were working in a private
dental office. However, in statistical presentations relating to
inactive hygienists or to trends in professional activity the terms
"practicing" or "in practice" a: re used in a broader connotation
referring to all professionally active hygienists.
